BTW, even if you don't run an intercooler, you should get the info off the injectors for the future. Look closely for the numbers. That's all you should need. If you can't get what you'll need, ask them. If they're evasive, which they will be, try to get the lb's and flow. In the past I've used the manufacturer, colored top, and part numbers as cross references.
Do they mention anything for the fuel pump to increase volume or pressure?

What price are you paying if you don't mind sharing? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>This kit just came out of R&D but they think the basic kit will be $3995. and the install is typically about $400. The only other cost is tuning of the PCM and whether you want to go bigger injectors. All told around $5000 installed. You can do the install yourself (really). It's all bolt on. I just didn't feel like doing it.

I had to think about that because I wondered what the hell has the color got to do with turbocharging. Does pink or red or ??? go faster? So I asked just that.... he said it's for the decal they send you. Doooohh

Jonahs get us the numbers on how much the fuel pump regulator can gain in fuel pressure and flow by volume if posible. It would be very intersting to see how much pressure can be increased by.
Exciting stuff for sure.
thanks
TAZ </div></BLOCKQUOTE>This isn't anything official and STS has nothing to do with it so no numbers. That info came from Darren @ Dawes based on what some of his customers have done. The pressure regulator in the H2 is at the fuel rails & I haven't researched whether or not they are adjustable because I don't intend to do that. When I install the STS I'll check & see.

It's about time. I was wondering when somebody was going to start think logically. I have been searching this topic since day one and couldn't believe that someone hasn't already done this. I would love to here the results and see the pics. Keep us updated Please!

I know you'll check your pm.
What's great is they are working with you.
What's sad is GM's over-concern for performance enhancements. Running rich can cause many longterm problems. Humm, TB clogging? Cat issues?
The programmers have it easy, just lean out the engine a tad and BAM! $400 please. Instant performance gains and some may argue MPG increases.
Frankly, it's rather irritating.

Do the trans.
You should get a boost in MPG as long as the programming is not too aggressive. The truck just doesn't work as hard to produce the power.
Congrats. Who's doing it and what kit is it?

I for sure have an interest in the turbocharger. I was thinking supercharger but after reading this thread, I'm very interested. If yours goes well I will for sure get one.

On the fuel pump they say it shouldn't be needed. You can install it if you want to but they don't think it will be necessary with the injector size they recommend.
